About this listen

 Jim Rutledge & Molly Brown come out HOT at Varsity Bar & Grill, reacting to the Brewers' win in the finale of their 5-game series vs the Cubs at Wrigley Field! Jim reminds those at ESPN Madison that the Brewers are really just 6 games (not 7) ahead in the NL Central standings since the Cubs won the regular-season series. They discuss why these teams still look like peers atop the National League, but would Brewers fans still want to see the Cubs again in the playoffs? They debate which teams should be included when asking who Brewers fans would or wouldn't want to see in the playoffs: the Cubs, the Dodgers, or the Phillies? They are briefly distracted by the Pillsbury Doughboy's arrival at Varsity Bar & Grill before Jim wants to explore producer Primetime's take that it's silly for 28-year-old, and new father, Isaac Collins to be a leading NL Rookie of the Year candidate... also, why can't we hear Primetime? They revisit today's Siding Unlimited poll question -- Do you want the Brewers to face the Cubs in the playoffs — and they discuss what could still change about these teams over the next month, and where would The Miz fall in Milwaukee's deep starting rotation come playoff time? During Throwing Stones, they thank their great fans who SHOWED OUT for the Jim, Matt & Molly league at last night's ESPN WI Fantasy Football draft before Molly gets in her own head about her fantasy report card. They wrap up asking some hard-hitting baby questions during the "meet & greet" portion the remote at Varsity Bar & Grill!
